I always find Lee Childs' Jack Reacher novels extremely compelling reading. Make Me is no exception... however, with this latest novel the same formula is there and is relatively predictable, albeit with a few twists and turns that (could) send the reader's imagination going off at different tangents at times. This plot is familiar -- Jack disembarking a train in a god-forsaken wilderness of a place, Mothers Rest -- just for his curiosity about the name and which, of course leads to the locals believing he's there for "other" reasons.... It's Childs' typical style, fast paced, but no less compelling a read. Lee's grammar / use of periods all the time is very waring on me personally, but that's his style of being specific and direct, I guess. A worthwhile read.

Takes a long time to get to some point of the writing. Gruesome. Has no valid reason to be written. This is so bad I told my wife she would likely get sick reading it. Hoped for a more positive reading, but, in the end, was just too gory and mean. UGH is my last word for it.

I highly recommend you read the entire series of "Jack Reacher" books by "Lee Child". You can't go wrong if you love the character. Looking forward to the new movie coming out as well. Lee Child is my favorite author and will always leave you wanting more!

Reacher fans are happy to see a new book in this series, but like the movie, this book is just a little off. "Make Me" is a little different than other Reacher books but is still a good read. Jack Reacher getting softer is as weird as Tom Cruise being cast as the big man.
